We can encounter bats everywhere. In caves, forests, cities and yes, even in our houses, the attics or cellars of buildings. But this should not worry us, especially because the legends regarding bats are merely legends. Instead, we should be happy because of the presence of bats. We should be extremely happy, because the activity and presence of bats is highly beneficial for us, mankind.(more…)

Romania’s bats form one of the most important and diverse bat populations in Europe. This importance is due to the great number of species and the size of colonies.

During 2016-2017, with funding obtained from EUROBATS, and the in-kind contribution of the Romanian Bat Protection Association, we implemented the project “The Carol line: assessing the importance of 150+ deserted bunkers for the conservation of the Romanian-Hungarian cross-border bat fauna”.
